(By the way, I notice you didn't bother to post a "thank you". That's not very considerate for someone now asking to be spoon fed).

I'm guessing you know as much about how to configure Charon as you do about using a proxy in your browser. Meaning little to no knowledge whatsoever. If you only found 7 anonymous proxies in that list, then you obviously are using a bad proxyjudge. Most of the judges that were included with the program were already dead when the program was released (years ago). Go to the Proxy Tools section here and find the list of Proxyjudges (here's a clue, it's a "sticky" ... meaning it's located at the top of the posted threads). Copy only the "azenv" judges into Charon's "Judge Options".

There are tutorials available for Charon in our Tutorials section as well as on the Charon's site.

I do not understand your statement regarding the browser setup. You were trying to open the proxies in your browser like any website. That is why you got those pages. I think you are still very confused. Slow down and READ carefully.

Regarding Charon, how did you know to change from the default proxyjudge setting (internal) to external?

It is quite possible that, like me, you cannot use proxies with ports 80 and 8080. You may also not be able to use the new breed of proxies with ports 11011, 11022, 11033, etc., etc. You'll need to experiment a bit.

Sorry, I do not understand what you are doing with the browser at all.

As I suspected, you are using the "internal judge" default setting in Charon. This doesn't work properly, if at all, for approximately 50% of the people who attempt to use it. So, until you change the setting to "external judge", it won't matter what external proxyjudge you have selected to use because it simply won't use it/them.

Once you have a working proxy configured in your browser, go to this site:

Code:

http://www.cmyip.com/

It should indicate your IP Address as that of the proxy you configured your browser to use. If it doesn't, something is wrong. If it shows your IP Address, then the proxy is transparent (non-anonymous).

Sounds like you might be using redirecting proxies based on what you are telling me. Simply change to a complete different proxy and not any in the following group:

I already answered your question in the simpliest of terms. All of the following proxies in Pamasa79's list are not really working proxies at all. Some (the ones you mentioned) are redirecting proxies ... meaning they give a false positive result when testing them (and are actually useless).

I will be adding at least the following group of proxies into my personal "exclusion list" (for Charon that would be into any one of the "ini" files contain in the filterfiles folder.

Surprisingly, for me anyway, Charon is incapable of detecting that these are distorting proxies (gateways) at all. In fact, I believe only AATools recognizes this. However, that doesn't matter, the fact remains that until someone like yourself attempts to use them directly in their browser for surfing, no one is the wiser.

You just ran into a bad group, and I am sorry I didn't recognize this sooner. But based on what you wrote originally is sounded like you were attempting to use a proxy by loading it with your browser as you would a web site.
